Rear end has "buggy style" leaf springs with large shackles and track bar to put the power down without axle wrap, ford drum brakes Both ends have 4.86 gears, transfer case has original box for clearance rebuilt for strength with after market gears. Slip yoke eliminator kit new fuel tank Custom drive shafts both ends for major flex Front has a 4 link with huge lower arms and newer rod ends xa 10T aurora, uppers are smaller also with aurora ends Transmission GM 4L60E Engine Corvette LT1 from cop car with cast exhaust manifolds so it will fit in the engine bay, approximately 48,000 miles on the motor, aftermarket cam for more torque, custom air breather, approximately 400 HP AGR steering box with high steer kit for clearance, new custom tie rod with new ends ARB bull bumper with super winch P/N 09032 Professional installed 2nd battery so the engine battery doesn't drain while winch and lights are in use Custom rear bumper that 2nds as air tank off the ARB compressor with selectable valve for air tank and locker or direct to locker. Fill the tires after the days run! Custom exhaust for extreme clearance with magnaflow muffler, awesome sound Sony 200 watt stereo with jack for ipod-Mp3 player, component speaker system Arb pump and locker select switches mounted on center consol or immediate use Brake proportioning valve and engine stall converter installed All aluminum bee-cool radiator with dual electric cooling fans new master cylinder Beefed up sway bar This rig runs great with no issues. New Bushwacker Fender Flares the cut out version. New Window tint with transferable lifetime warranty Extra parts that are not currently on the vehicle but are included in the sale. Comes with light force off road lights with 3 sets of lenses for legal on road use that were mounted on the front bumper. Extra drive shaft acquired though out the build. High lift jack stowed on the internal roll cage. Inverter on battery box to run tools while on the trail. Spare tire carrier that bolts to the rear bumper. It swings out to accommodate opening the back hatch and is very heavy duty, it will easily accept a 38 inch tire, and it currently holds a 35” tire as a spare. It is a dual purpose rig drive to the trail wheel and drive home, no tow rig and trailer needed! The odometer has about 180,000 on it, no way to know if that is correct because the odometer was messed with during the engine swap the important thing is that the motor only has about 46,000. There is a lot of strength added to the frame in key spots the braces show up in some of the pictures. I added a rok steering bracket to strengthen where the steering box mounts to the frame. There is a massive boxed brace tied into the frame rails where the 4 link is connected that protects the trany. There is bracing on the frame were the rear springs connect for strength. There is cross bracing where the track bar connects that also helps protect the transfer case. The rock rails are also connected to the frame for further protection and strengthening. Newer front rancho springs and newer rear leaf springs, I know they look rusty but there is only probably 2500 miles on them apparently the paint they come with doesn't hold up. You can still see the white stickers by the shackles. The rear has selectable rancho shocks and the front has bilstein Co charged. The only guys who can go where this can't have 50 - 70 grand invested in there rigs. This thing flexes like crazy but can be reasonably driven on the road no trailer queen's. I have tried to cover everything. I just did a lot of recent body work and it would be almost ready for paint if you want to paint the vehicle The bad There are only 15x8 inch rims on the vehicle so that you are limited to a certain tire width to fit the tire. I have currently 35x13.50r15 tires and the rim is maxxed out. The rear leafs might need to be replaced soon and they are from a Skyjacker 6 inch lift so that you can easily get them if you need, There is a 1.5” block in the rear so if you wanted to eliminate the block or add 2 inches of lift just buy the 8 inch springs that they offer. It has the usual shakes but its only bad from 45-55 MPH and then it smoothes out. But even so its not that bad but feel free to drive it to see what I mean.
